The Chinese Academy of Engineering (CAE) confirmed its decision to suspend a scholar's qualifications for violating a new regulation on ethics
standards Rays Colby Rasmus Jersey , media reported Sunday.

Li Ning, a leading scientist in animal cloning, was confirmed to have his title suspended in line with the CAE's regulations, the Xinhua News Agency
reported Sunday. He was believed to be the first CAE academician to have his title suspended.

The CAE announcement came after a new regulation approved by the institute in December 2014, which states that qualifications of its academicians, who
have breached laws, harmed national interests Rays Chris Archer Jersey , or found scientifically immoral, should be suspended when they are officially arrested. Their title will be revoked if
the court should find them guilty.

Li became a CAE academician in 2007, reportedly the youngest scholar to become a CAE academician. He was arrested in June 2014 on suspicions that he
embezzled 20 million yuan ($3.2 million) by producing phony invoices and transferring research funds to his own company, the Beijing Times reported.

Li, who made a name in trans-gene research in 2012, was also a professor at the China Agricultural University. Along with six other professors from
several universities, he was found to have swindled over 25 million yuan in State funds through fake research projects in 2014 Rays Brad Boxberger Jersey , media reported.

China spent 1 trillion yuan, or about 1.97 percent of GDP, on research and development in 2012. The amount topped 2 percent for the first time in
2013, the Ministry of Science and Technology said.

BEIJING, Jan. 7 (Xinhuanet) -- A Czech archaeology team has discovered the tomb of a previously unknown queen in Egypt, according to media report on
Wednesday.

The tomb was found in Neferefre's funeral complex, which is located in an Old Kingdom necropolis southwest of Cairo in Abusir. It's believed that the
queen was Neferefre's wife.

The tomb Rays Alex Cobb Jersey , dating back to the middle of the 5th Dynasty (2994-2345 BC), has an inscription that indicates its owner was the "king's
wife." Archaeologists also found about 30 utensils made from limestone and copper.

"This discovery will help us shed light on certain unknown aspects of the Fifth Dynasty, which along with the Fourth Dynasty, witnessed the
construction of the first pyramids," Egypt's Antiquities Minister Mamdouh el-Damaty said.

In a statement, the minister called the queen Khentakawess III, noting that this is the "first time we have discovered the name of this queen who had
been unknown before the discovery of her tomb."

As the Vancouver Canucks held their first practice in Shanghai before their exhibition game with the Los Angeles Kings Wilson Ramos Jersey , a dense fog settled over the ice. The humidity in the arena was high and the players could barely see the puck.

Large dehumidifiers were rolled in and the mist eventually cleared, but the NHL has perhaps a bigger visibility problem in China â a country with
little tradition of winter sports, hockey included. The league is hoping to turn that around with a major push in the country, beginning with its
first two preseason games between the Canucks and Kings in Shanghai and Beijing this week.

The timing couldnât be better for the NHL. With Beijing set to host the 2022 Winter Olympics, the government is putting a massive emphasis on
developing winter sports. Hockey training programs and youth leagues are expanding across China, and the nationâs first professional team, the
Kunlan Red Star Wade Davis Jersey , plays in Russiaâs Kontinental Hockey League.

With interest on the rise, the NHL believes it now has an opportunity to crack a market that has traditionally been more fixated on basketball and
soccer.

âYou donât quite know what to expect the first time the game is coming here, but Iâve always believed that hockey is a game you need to see
live,â Los Angeles Kings coach John Stevens said after Wednesdayâs practice. âAnd once you see it live, you become hooked as a fan.â

A glance at the numbers shows just how far the NHL has to go. According to the International Ice Hockey Federation, China has just 1,101 registered
players Wade Boggs Jersey , compared with nearly 556,000 in the U.S. and more than 631,000 in Canada.

And the fan base in a nation of more than 1.2 billion people is still in its infancy. On Weibo, the Chinese equivalent of Twitter, the NHL has just
47,000 followers, some of whom are obviously new to the sport. (One posted a question about the temperature of the arena and what was suitable to wear
to the game.) The NBA Tommy Hunter Jersey , which hosted its first preseason exhibition games in China in 2004, boasts more than 33 million followers on Weibo.

âWeâre learning a lot about how to market here and weâre learning a lot about how tickets are sold,â says David Proper, the NHLâs executive
vice president of media and international strategy. âWeâre just viewing this as Year 1 of a multi-year project and in Year 1 we may not knock it
out of the park . but we can still build over time.â

Media exposure certainly helps. State broadcaster CCTV now televises five games per week to Chinese audiences and the Internet giant Tencent streams
14 games per week on its digital platforms, including the Stanley Cup playoffs.

The NHL also has an influential partner on the ground in Zhou Yunjie, the billionaire founder of a Chinese drinks packaging company who has devoted
significant time and resources to building the game he fell in love with as a youth in Beijing. Zhouâs company, ORG Packaging Steven Souza Jersey , is the presenting partner for this weekâs exhibition games.
